THE END OF THE ROADS
It be the final night of operatin’ for The Roads of Dublin, a quaint li’ll Irish pub with a fair loyal clientele. Unfortunately, the bar is gonna be gutted and revamped by a shady, ne’er-do-well restaurant mogul into “Doyle’s,” a chain restaurant that attempts to “recreate” the Irish experience. Everyone is putting on their best face for the final night including the barman, the waitress, the shy lass, the performing duo, the reverend, the producer, the cop, and… the barfly. But will someone’s dastardly deed cast a pall on the evening?
FATAL ERROR
CommTech is throwing a gala dinner for their new product launch codenamed… Project Orion. What was originally planned to be… a bunch of hardcore nerds slapping themselves on the back for a job well done turns south because a devious, but not tech-savvy project manager has hijacked the launch to further his own career. Many a feather has been ruffled among the programmers, tech media, and rival companies thanks to his shenanigans, but will someone take their grudge too far, and set their phaser… to kill?!?

You are invited to return to the Flaherty estate with those survivors to confront the tragic events they escaped years ago.

ROCK IS DEAD
After 35 years, the legendary Rock & Roll group Thunderhorse is reuniting!! Many of the band members have been out of the limelight for decades; Mostly because of a general loathing of the intolerable antics of the groups lead singer, Rocky Jackson. Who knows what inspired the group members to come back for one last tour. Maybe it’s for the money, maybe it’s for the music, maybe it’s just for that electric sensation of performing in front of thousands of screaming fans… or maybe it’s to settle an old score. A score that can only be satisfied by blood… from the heart of Rock itself.
